Spring 2012
Gold and silver dressing alloys were created by DC magnetron sputtering and compared with pure silver nanocrystalline dressings using conventional biological and physical characterization techniques. While the gold/silver dressings were weaker antimicrobials than the pure silver nanocrystalline...

20Cr-32Ni-1Nb stainless steel alloys are commonly used in hydrogen reformer manifolds for transporting hot hydrogen by-products at 750-950 celcius. After long periods of exposure, embrittling secondary carbides and intermetallic phases can precipitate at the grain boundaries which can drastically...

Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy Study of Electron Transport Through Diazonium Derived Films and Mixed – Mode Bonded Layers on Gold and Carbon Surfaces
DownloadSpring 2012
For Molecular Electronics to become a viable replacement or complitment to current elec- tronic devices a fundamental understanding of device operation and functionality is needed. This work explores electron transport through diazonium derived molecular junctions via conductive atomic force...

Cryo-electron microscopy of SERCA interacting with oligomeric phospholamban and oligomeric sarcolipin
DownloadFall 2011
In 2007, heart disease was the second leading cause of death in Canadians. In heart muscle cells, calcium (Ca2+) is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during contraction and must be replenished for relaxation to occur. Three proteins restore Ca2+ to the SR following contraction: the...

Dependence of the Interfacial Adhesion between Two Different Types of Material on their Electron Work Function and Electrical Conductivity
DownloadFall 2021
We observed and investigated a novel interfacial phenomenon related to the dependence of interfacial bonding or adhesive force (Fad) between two substances on the difference in their Electron Work Functions (EWF) or Δφ, and developed a model to quantify such a dependence. First, using...

Development of High Efficiency and New Selectivity Liquid Chromatographic Phases for the Separation of Ionic and Hydrophilic Analytes
DownloadFall 2013
Separation of low molecular weight ions and hydrophilic analytes is achieved by high performance ion chromatography (IC) and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The goal of this thesis was three-fold: to increase the efficiency of IC separations by employing small particles; to...
